My 2 cents is that I care more about game play and new GVs/AC than "improved" graphics. I also care about frame rate. There are other games out there which emphasize graphics, usually at the cost of plausible flight / vehicle models. Their rationale is that the majority of naive users will never notice so long as the graphics are snazzy-looking, and they are probably right, unfortunately. Let's not go down that road.
